Marking the new millennium, the exhibition China: One Hundred Treasures, opening in Jerusalem, is a milestone... The exhibition traces the continuous renewal and refinement of Chinese culture, each object reflecting a sense of era and regional characteristics. Every period has its own great accomplishments from the pottery wares of Yangshao culture, dating 6,000 years ago, to the paintings of the last feudal dynasty only 200 years ago. These cultural relics come from Shaanxi, Gansu, Zhejiang, Henan, Inner Mongolia, Sichuan, Liaoning, Anhui, Hunan, Hubei, Hebei, and Jiangsu - over ten provinces, cities, and autonomous regions, from north to south and east to west. Each object in the exhibition represents the quintessence of the cultural relics unearthed in this vast, expansive land.
